Fijian sisters

There is a place that I have never been but that I love because of some dear sisters from my church...FIJI. We have a lot of Fijian women in our ward and they are some of the most wonderful women you will ever meet. I love them so much. Today, I was still in a bit of a funk worrying about my family in Idaho, Sam was VERY VERY sick (similar to how sick Hannah got around age one when she spent a week in the hospital), and I was exhausted from being up all night with Mr Pukes~a~lot. So I went to church, dreading the meeting that I had after church and wishing that I could be home with Sam. One of our dear Fijian sisters bore one of the most powerful testimonies I have heard in a long time, quoting some of my favorite verses from the Bible. I felt overwhelmed and my the Spirit and was reminded that there is so much good, so many things that are right in my life. I also felt that despite the current bout of hardship my family is going through, my parents are doing what God would have them do, and that makes all the difference. At times life is hard but it is also good. God loves all of us and I know that. All this I learned from the Spirit that I felt from a sister who truly knows and loves God. I was so greatful for that sweet faith that is so common among these Fijian sisters and grateful for their truly gentle and powerful way. I thank Heavenly Father for Fiji.
